Coventry City defender Jordon Thompson has extended his loan agreement with non-league club Barrow A.F.C.

The 18-year-old centre-back joined the Bluebirds on an initial 28-day youth loan deal from September 15 to October 14, but both clubs have taken the decision to extend the agreement by an extra month, until November 14.

Thompson has clearly impressed during his time with Barrow, after winning praise from boss Micky Moore for his debut against Torquay United, and going on to play every minute of all five games since his arrival at Holker Street.

Speaking about Thompson and fellow new recruit Paul Bignot after the draw with Torquay, Moore said: "Jordan was a massive plus today.

"Both of them equipped themselves really well, both only came in on Friday, so there was no real time for them to understand what we are doing, but they are two more players we have on board to add to the squad."

The talented defender is one of three Sky Blues players currently on loan, after Kyel Reid joined Colchester United in August and Jordan Turnbull signed for Partick Thistle earlier this summer.

Kwame Thomas was also sent out on loan to gain valuable game-time after an injury-hit season hampered his progress last term, but the striker has since returned to the Ricoh Arena after his disappointing spell at Sutton United expired on October 7.

The 22-year-old managed just two first team starts and one substitute appearance during his spell at Gander Green Lane where he failed to score.

Of those appearances, he played 90 minutes on just one occasion while playing 69 minutes on the only other game he started for Paul Doswell's men.

He was handed the last 15 minutes against Wrexham in his last showing for the National League side on September 30, was an unused sub on two occasions and not included in the squad twice in his seven-game spell.

Thomas 's loan expired on Saturday, when he wasn't included in the squad for the 2-1 home win over AFC Fylde, before returning to Coventry.
